100 Posts of Random Hate

In celebration of my 100th post on Blogger, I've compiled a list of 100 things that I hate. There's no underlying theme (well, that I'm aware of... my psychologist might have something to say to that), no order, and no justification. I kept to petty hates, and left the big-ticket hate items for people who want to be taken seriously. For the record: yes, I do agree that anti-semitism, world hunger, and murder are all BAD.

Just FYI, Rage Against the Machine DIDN'T write Renegades of Funk. It's just a cover.

P.S. Your hate of the song Imagine makes me a bit sad.
